If you went to or read about the Consumer Electronics Show that happened in Vegas earlier this month, you couldn’t help but be inundated with all the talk about tablets and smartphones. In fact, it was a tablet that won the coveted Best in Show award. I’ve got nothing against them and in fact I’m a user myself. The part that gets my goat is that there are a lot of “experts” greatly exaggerating the death of desktops and laptops at the hands of the smartphones and tablets. If I was a software developer and I took all these expert opinions to heart, I just might be inclined to scrap my d

Part 6: Implications for Software Developers: Cloud Management Software
While the scope of trusted computing may seem limited to an individual computer, one might also consider the broader context of public or private data centers and cloud computing.

Part 4: Intel® TXT
So where does Intel fit into the picture?
Intel® Trusted Execution Technology (Intel® TXT)[8] is Intel's flagship technology for making possible the implementation of the trusted computing vision described above. TXT, as a collection of technologies, is quite complex, but a summarizing list of features is as follows9:

Part 3: The Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
The TPM, as defined by TCG[7], is a multi-function hardware unit solving a number of problems related to the context of trusted computing. In simplistic terms, the TPM can be thought of as a cryptographic co-processor with a secure integrity measurement storage scheme.

1.1 Trusted Computing Group
The problem of trust in computing platforms has been directly addressed by the Trusted Computing Group (TCG)[2], an industry consortium formed in 2003 to create standards “with the aim of enhancing the security of the computing environment in disparate computer platforms.”[3]

It’s your community – let us know what you think.
Since taking over the role of community manager, we’ve made a few changes to the community that I hope you like. The first is that we’ve given the homepage a face-lift. We tried to make it a little more pleasing to the eye plus make it easier for you to find what you need as quickly as possible. Hopefully you’ve noticed that our Black Belts are being highlighted and recognized on the page. If all the rewards and accolades for becoming a Black Belt weren’t enough, now you have the extra incentive of having your picture on the community homepage! We’ve also added a video section to the bot
Hardening Measures Built into Intel® Active Management Technology
As network planners and security analysts consider implementing Intel® Active Management Technology into their environments, they can use the information in this document to gauge the native security of the platform and to understand some of the key security decisions associated with using the technology.
